I'm sure that this shot was like this in the original, but it just looks really out of place.

The scenes before and after it, the sky is a nice blue, but this closeup it is very red.  If it was supposed to be like that as per the original, that's fine by me, just is a bit off to me.

Yes, it IS correct - this scene always had red sky

Here's WP3 reel 2:

Can't wait till I get home to watch it :-)

Is there any particular trick uloz?  Been trying  since last night and I think the most I've been able to get before the connection crapped out is 200mb. 

USENET is always appreciated. These days, hard to find a free provider, most ISPs are dropping it. But still, always appreciated. ;)

Well in my country no provider has an idea what usenet is.

Yeah, I don't know where I'm gonna upload now, because RS went absolutely crap and limited the dl speed to 30Kbps for free users, in other words, it is impossible to dl anything from there unless you have a paid account. Uloz.to kind of sucks too and MU is dead.

Do you know mediafire ?

MediaFire, absolutely. Full speed up- and downloads, no countdowns, no captchas. Go for it!

What about creating a shared file with a dropbox account?  I'm sure that there is enough people in here to chip in to pay for the subscription fee.  I know that I would! That way you would be able to share the link for the file, and anybody would be able to download it.

I got most of it. Really beautiful work.

@ Harmy

Amazing work, I've never been a huge fan of Episode IV but your colour correction seems to have changed my mind.

Did you notice the strange artifact at 25:49:20?

So as I understand it's just Episode IV getting the reworked V 2.0?

Cant wait until its done!

Mediafire sounds pretty good. A 200mb limit is unfortunate, especially for a 25GB BD but it's not impossible.

I was also thinking, how difficult would it be to create a sort of a Blu-Ray skeleton, so that people who have the MKV (which will have the same video stream for the main movie as the BD) could simply download that and then mux it together to create a fully functioning BD?  Would that be possible?

If mediafire speed is good, 200mb it's not so bad... ;-) Specially for the AVCHD project.

Tsmuxer can convert a mkv file into a BD or AVCHD in minutes, for an emergency solution it's ok, but just to make a disc without menus.

First of all thank you Harmy, WP3R2 really is great :-)

Well, I think there is a possibility to release it the way Harmy thought of. However I have never tried that personally, so it should be tested before release.

He could author a BD with menus and everything and save it to a folder, using whatever authoring software he wants to. Then he could delete the m2ts for the main movie, rar the rest of the files and upload them.

People would then take the mkv and remux it to m2ts using TsMuxer. Then they'd copy it in the appropriate folder. The last step would be to use Imageburn and create an iso.

About the upload: How long do you have to wait at mediafire before you can download the next file?

I would really go for usenet, at least as a second way of distribution. Yes, many ISPs don't offer usenet access anymore, but since they didn't cover binary groups this doesn't really matter here, does it? To download binaries/files you have to pay (or get a free test account). However, prices are rather low I'd say and files have a very high retention of rougly 3 years or even more for some providers.

@djchaseb: No, the whole OT will be reworked as v2.0

I'm hoping that what Jan said will work (I will of course test it first), so if you already had the mkv, you wouldn't be downloading the whole BD but only the menus and extras (and yes, there would be some). I'm not sure how exactly it would work with sound and subtitle files though - I have no idea how the BD structure works.

Subtitles need to be in PGS (Presentation Graphic Stream) format for blu-ray.

When we drag your mkv onto tsMuxeR, the video, audio, chapters and subtitle streams should show up. But you may need to provide the DTS-HD MA track as a separate download if you're only going to include PCM, AC3 or core DTS audio tracks with the mkv.

You could also provide an even smaller version of the BDMV folder structure for those of us who also already have any of the extras you're going to be authoring with. In other words, the STREAM folder would only need to have the menu m2ts video files.
